[QUOTE="TChopeful2021, post: 28341, member: 5416"] I’m wondering the same thing. I’m currently drafting my Travers Smith cover letter and I remember at the TS event, the recruitment partner actually encouraged a little humour in the cover letters because it apparently makes them stand out - he even gave examples of how some current trainees articulated the humour and why he appreciated them. However, I do think he just has a very ‘laid-back’ personality and I'm reluctant to say his attitude is representative of the firm. The way I see it is this: no one will criticise you for not including humour, but there is the likelihood of it being interpreted the wrong way if you include it. Curious to hear Jessica's thoughts on this! [/QUOTE]
